The World of Warcraft Trading Card Game was released in October of 2006 by Upper Deck Entertainment. They lost the right in March 2010, and now Cryptozoic Entertainment has taken over the Trading Card Game.

Unlike most TCGs, the game has a larger focus on multiplayer, having both raids and battlegrounds. Upperdeck has already released five raid decks featuring Onyxia the black dragon, Ragnaros the Firelord, Magtheridon, the Black Temple, and Naxxramas. Raid decks are meant to be tackled by three to five players.

World of Warcraft reward items Loot Cards

The TCG currently offers “legendary” loot cards. These cards are special versions of the normal card, however, they have a scratch off bar which contains a long hexadecimal code. These cards are entered on the Blizzard web site which converts them to a similar code that is specific to the realm of your choice. You then use the code with Landro Longshot, a vendor in Booty Bay, to obtain the item. The codes are single-use, so you get one item on one character on one server for each loot card code you get. You do not get the item on all your characters, unlike the collector’s edition pets. If you are having trouble with your loot cards, check out the loot card walk-through.

These loot cards are divided into three categories:

  • Common – Common loot card, which is now usually a consumable item.
  • Rare – A rare loot card.
  • Very rare – A very rare loot card.

For more information, see Loot Cards.

UDE Points

One of the original “pulls” of the WoW TCG was that each booster pack had a guaranteed UDE points card, which featured 100 UDE points on it. These cards could be turned in at the Upper Deck website, and be used to buy various items. After a while, the points cards became material cards, while still featuring points. The UDE points program did not transfer with the TCG when it moved to Cryptozoic, so material cards released after Wrathgate no longer have UDE points on them.

For more information, see TCG UDE points.
